I have plenty of Small Pistol Magnum primers.

I want some Federal Small Pistol non-Magnum primers. I’ve never used Federal SP Match primers, but I currently have a good source for them.

For light to medium intensity loads in a .357, can I interchangeably use the Federal SP _non Match_ and the Federal SP Match primers?

Anyone have good reliable info as to what the difference is ‘tween the Federal SP Match and the Federal SP non-Match primers?

Tnx, folks……

Yes, completely interchangeable.

Match primers are supposedly held to higher quality standards during manufacture, and supposedly produce more uniform shot to shot ignition.

I doubt you could notice it in an average handgun.
